Going to Japan, 日本へ行くぞ!

On adventure's brink
I happily lay my plans
daydreaming carelessly


Well, I've been looking forward to this post for a long time. Its a little spur of the moment!!! It all boils down to cost and opportunity! That and a nice wife to boot! Osaka here I come! I'll be in the big city of Osaka from April 21st to April 27th (Japan time). All the while having a great time.

Things I would like to do -
-See a WWII airplane museum (probably won't happen)
-Get a photo of a sunrise over the Pacific (probably won't happen)
-Eat nothing but Japanese Food! (Definitely)
-Help cook Japanese food (Definitely)
-See some friends (Definitely)
-Practice Japanese (ummm yup)
-Visit area shrines and temples (Check)
-Go hiking (Maybe yes)
-See Sumo (Probably no)
-KARAOKE (YES!)
-Izakaya (Maybe yes!)
-Visit places in Osaka tourists usual don't go.
-Get some more photo's and inspiration for the blog
-Scout out some plans for a big family trip to Hiroshima!
-See Mt. Fuji (Last time I went through Tokyo it was raining)
-See a baseball game!!!

Got any ideas? leave a comment, or e-mail me! Many thanks to all my friends -and family- who are making this possible! If I get to a computer I'll try some remote posting!

  1. There is some pretty good Italian food in Japan.

    Have a good Japanese beer you can't get in the States.

  2. Oh, my confused friend.... no no no.... I'm afraid that won't do at all! (actually in the building I am staying there is an Italian Restaurant... Maybe I'll have a nibble... just to see!)

    Now, Beer on the other hand!!! Maybe I'll stash a mini-keg of Asahi in my luggage!
